Hotel Luca’s architecture will be a classic two-story Italian design. The facility will feature 20 rooms.
Hotel Luca’s managing partner David Fink said that the hotel will be designed to complement the local area – the Napa Valley. The al-fresco dining area surrounded by olive trees will overlook a courtyard with a fountain.
The 90-seat restaurant Cantinetta Piero will feature contemporary Italian decor and cuisine. Piero will feature a 15-feet brick ceiling held by large beams. The rooftops of the hotel feature 200-year old tiles from the town of Lucca, Italy. All the rooms will be equipped with flat-screen TVs, music systems and recessed lighting. The rooms will be adorned by dark-toned furnishings. Fireplaces and balconies will also be featured in some of the rooms.
A warm-water massaging pool, as well as a regular pool for swimming will feature outside the hotel. The Luca Spa will include a Zen Garden and a lavender-saltwater soaking pool with a water wall and fireplace.
The Mirabel Group operates properties in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California. The company’s flagship hotel is L’Auberge Carmel, and is a Relais and Chateaux member. The same design team that created L’Auberge Carmel is working on Hotel Luca. Los Angels-based Jeffrey Fink Associates is the architectural design firm for the property, and the interior design is being done by Kathleen Fink of Focus Design (former KMF Design), based in Minnesota.
